Time P7DT25m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 cloves garlic, minced, or more to taste
water to cover

Steps:

  • Allow cabbage to ferment in a cool, dry place, 1 to 4 weeks (depending on how tangy you like your sauerkraut). The temperature of the room you ferment the sauerkraut in should not rise above 70 degrees F (21 degrees C).
